Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Frequently asked questions about photoshoots in the Algarve — from booking and locations to timing, planning and image delivery.

  • Booking is easy—send me a message via my contact form, email, or WhatsApp. Let me know your preferred date, the type of session you’d like, and any ideas you already have. I’ll get back to you shortly with availability and a tailored offer.

  • The Algarve is full of picture-perfect locations — from Faro’s calm beaches to Lagos’s golden coves, Sagres’s cliffs, and the wild west coast. You’re welcome to choose a spot you already love, or I can suggest the best locations based on where you’re staying, the light, tides, and the mood you want for your photos.

  • The best time for a photoshoot in the Algarve is during sunrise or sunset, when the light is soft, warm and flattering. Sunset sessions are especially popular along the cliffs of Sagres, Lagos and Praia da Marinha, creating beautiful golden tones and dramatic coastal landscapes.

  • Wear something that feels comfortable and true to you. Neutral or earthy tones usually work best with the Algarve landscape. If you ever need help choosing outfits, I’m happy to give suggestions before the session.

  • After the session, I’ll upload all the best photos (usually 100+ images) to a private online gallery.
    From there, you can:

    1. Mark your favourites – select the number of images included in your package

    2. Add extra photos if you’d like – you can purchase single images or a bundle

    3. Let me know once your selection is done – then I’ll edit and deliver the final photos

  • To secure your date, a 30% deposit is required.
    The remaining balance is due on the day of the shoot and can be paid by bank transfer, PayPal, or cash.
